Hi,

I'd like to manage logos on video in a realtime basis.

I succed almost. First I'm launching the commande below And I can hide the logo by entering the command And I can display again the logo with this command. Now I'm looking for a way to do it programmatically with perl, Bash or other languages.

Anyone have an idea ?

Thanks

Bro,
Do you know how to do in Windows.

thanks,

Hi,

you can use a TCP/IP socket in lieu of the standard rc interface by typing :

=> vlc -I rc --rc-host localhost:9999 --sub-filter logo .....

You can connect to vlc by issuing the following command and typing the rc commands.
=> nc localhost 9999

This nc command can very easily be inserted into a bash shell as in the following example

#!/bin/bash

nc localhost 9999 <<EOF
@my_marq marq-marquee $1
logout
EOF
